would God I could awaken!



petit details

i made a floral wreath to wear with my "innocent world" dress, my first lolita item! these flowers were taken from an old japanese hat factory according to the shop's owner where i got them. she also suggested a lovely idea of using floral "sprouts" and adding glitter to them for a dreamy effect. i have some extra material left like a couple of these super cute puffy strawberries and leaves. not sure what i should do with them but i want to make more wreaths & hang them around my room~!

fairy wreath

   For I dream I know not how,
    And my soul is sorely shaken
    Lest an evil step be taken, --
    Lest the dead who is forsaken
    May not be happy now.

matt and i went on some adventures since we haven't done this in awhile. we explored a cathedral that i occasionally go to for mass. i've never noticed it before, but matt saw an occultic symbol on one window pane that was cleverly hidden yet pretty obvious coming in through the side entrance of the cathedral. we decided to go on this tiny old creepy elevator (3 people max!) to get to the balcony or tower. upon arrival, it was really dark and i must admit, scared that there could have been ghosts! we were the only ones up there.

afterwards, we went to the "alice in wonderland" garden that i was talking about last time. more pictures of this later <3

songs of innocence

i found an "alice in wonderland" garden nearby my house. it will make for lovely photo adventures once all the flowers bloom.

egocentrism

cute obsessions

i've rekindled my obsession with cuteness within the last year. i remember making "cutesy" websites back in the day, that is before all these social networking sites popped up. the online world seemed a lot more innocent and pure then, as if it was reserved for introverts and quiet types. i had an interesting conversation with matt about this topic. it seems too easy to make "websites" now. but then again, if the internet had not progressed to this point then would i ever know about "fairy kei"? i learned about this through a japanese fashion tumblr. this pastel girly style with an 80s cartoon influence (my little pony, carebears, popples, etc) has been capturing my interest. super cute is an understatement! frilly skirts, ribbons, and plenty of bows...why should such things only be accepted for little girls. i don't think i ever want to grow up, i'll keep dreaming...
